Photos : Angela Bassett,55 In Sexy Black Corset For Violet Grey

The 55-year-old (can you believe that?)actress who have been nominated for her supporting role in American Horror Story: Coven (damn,i love that series) smoulders is new black and white shoot for Violet Grey.

She was asked by the publication what she sees when she looks in the mirror,She said;

'A passionate woman who knows what she loves and has been blessed to be able to do it and and continue to do it!'

WHO DOES THE RED CARPET WELL TODAY?

Cate Blanchett, Penélope Cruz, and, of course, Lupita [Nyong’o].

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST WEAKNESS?

Love…and sugar.

WHEN DO YOU FEEL THE MOST VULNERABLE?

When I’m told I can’t do something. When I’m told I’m not good enough, that I can’t have something, can’t go somewhere, especially because of the color of my skin.

Angela is one fantastic actress that knows her craft and is passionate about art. See her advice to actors and more photos after the cut...

WHAT KIND OF ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO ACTORS JUST STARTING OUT IN THEIR CAREER?

It’s the same with everything: You have to study your craft. Actresses make it look easy because that’s the way it should look—effortless. When a great actor does their job they’re leaving a piece of their soul in the room. It takes a little out of you, but that’s okay. Life will take a little out of you, love will take a little out of you. We’re talking about demonstrating the best and worst of the human experience.

The 'stella got her groove' star will soon make her directorial debut with a Whitney Houston biopic.

She starred with the late Houston in the 1995 picture Waiting to Exhale.

She will also return for American Horror Story's fourth season later this year.
